Impact of type 2 diabetes mellitus on left ventricular diastolic function in patients with essential hypertension: evaluation by volume-time curve of cardiac magnetic resonance [PDF]

open access: goldCardiovascular Diabetology, 2021
Abstract Background Essential hypertension and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) are two common chronic diseases that often coexist, and both of these diseases can cause heart damage. However, the additive effects of essential hypertension complicated with T2DM on left ventricle (LV) diastolic function have not been fully ...

Evaluation of diastolic function by cardiac MRI in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy: validation of 3D model-based analysis of left ventricular filling curves [PDF]

open access: goldJournal of Cardiovascular Magnetic Resonance, 2014
Background Diastolic function (DF) is not routinely assessed by cardiac MR (CMR), but is critical for assessment of common disease states such as heart failure or hypertrophy. At present, special pulse sequences (tagging, phase contrast) are necessary for CMR for diastolic function assessment. The purpose of this study was to assess cine CMR volumetric

Effects of severe scoliosis on cardiac structure and function in resting patients: a retrospective study [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Orthopaedic Surgery and Research
Background Severe scoliosis may impair cardiac structure and function. This study aims to evaluate the cardiac structural and functional changes in patients with severe thoracic scoliosis at rest, using echocardiography to inform perioperative strategies.

Learning curve for quantification of right ventricular size and systolic function in pulmonary arterial hypertension: comparison of cardiac magnetic resonance and three-dimensional echocardiography [PDF]

open access: goldJournal of Cardiovascular Magnetic Resonance, 2012
Background Quantification of right ventricular (RV) volumes is challenging, particularly in patients with pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) who often have dilated and dysfunctional RVs. Several studies have shown that cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) and 3-dimensional echocardiography (3DE) provide very reliable measurements of RV volumes when ...

Bedside Assessment of Total Systemic Vascular Compliance, Stressed Volume, and Cardiac Function Curves in Intensive Care Unit Patients

open access: bronzeAnesthesia & Analgesia, 2012
Mean systemic filling pressure (Pmsf) can be measured at the bedside with minimally invasive monitoring in ventilator-dependent patients using inspiratory hold maneuvers (Pmsf(hold)) as the zero flow intercept of cardiac output (CO) to central venous pressure (CVP) relation.

Exploration of mortality-associated creatinine thresholds for acute kidney injury in cardiac surgery patients with impaired kidney function: a single-center retrospective cohort study [PDF]

open access: yesBMC Anesthesiology
Background Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a frequent and severe complication following cardiac surgery, particularly in patients with impaired kidney function.

Changes of Plasma Tris(hydroxymethyl)aminomethane and 5-Guanidino-3-methyl-2-oxopentanoic Acid as Biomarkers of Heart Remodeling after Left Ventricular Assist Device Support

open access: yesMetabolites, 2022
Cardiac function is closely related to heart metabolism. Heart failure patients undergoing LVAD support have shown varying degrees of remodeling of both cardiac function and morphology.
